LDI Continues to promote rural broadband adoption in NE Louisiana

Dear Louisiana Delta Initiative Members:

Please be aware of several grant writing assistance workshops in July and August. These grants will be accessible by local governments and non-profits to improve broadband (high speed Internet) infrastructure and other uses. Please distribute to local government officials and announce in your networks. We need to get the word out to our rural communities to take advantage of this assistance.

Registration and workshop location information can be found here: http://lagic.lsu.edu/BroadbandWorkshopsRegistration.asp. If you should have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Also, please be aware of our continued effort to promote rural broadband adoption as part of the LDI core mission. You can follow the new developments on our blog and website.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

James
